Getting error No such property: previous for class

Originally asked by Erika Pillmeier on 18 November 2019 (original question)

I’m trying to add status changes as comments using this:

if (!replica.status.equals(previous?.status)) {
// construct the comment
String message = "${replica.key}: Status updated from '${previous?.status?.name}' to '${replica?.status?.name}'"
issue.comments = commentHelper.addComment(message, issue.comments)
}

However, I keep getting the error:

No such property: previous for class

What am I missing?

Can you provide the whole incoming sync script?

The previous replica is not available when doing the first synchronisation.

That makes sense. So actually it has to be:

if (!firstSync && !replica.status.equals(previous?.status)) {
  // construct the comment
  String message = "${replica.key}: Status updated from '${previous?.status?.name}' to '${replica?.status?.name}'"
  issue.comments = commentHelper.addComment(message, issue.comments)
}

Works now. Thanks so much!

We will be adding previous also in the firstSync, but keep it empty such that it doesn’t throw this horrific error.

Thanks for sharing the solution.
